I am a nobody so because I am a nobody I can inquire about the ‘’somebodies’’ in Jamaica and after inquiring I have realized that they are nobodies just like me  

First I want to address the managers and producers who for years have been feeding the public with poorly orchestrated , lame gimmicks. One publicist cannot service the whole music fraternity because in doing so you are putting your careers in the hand of one person to do as they please.  We are different  and we all will not get along. There is no need to invent superficial rivalries and the real ones are swept under the rug. Those don’t sell music. Jamaica is a small place, everyone knows someone that knows someone, when you send those superficial promotional releases they are boring because the person you are writing about, the people reading know it is nothing more than a bag of lies. Silly enough though, the truth about people will always be more interesting because in relating the truth, someone will always be able to relate and fans will be gained in the process.

Some promoters try to promote music encouraging the artist to ‘’diss’’  the hottest/most successful artist of the day. It wont work if the artist doesn’t know the person singing the dis song and doesn’t have a true disagreement with them. The record will not sell, you are wasting your time.

Last week , apparently two artist ,planned a ‘’sex tape’’ release , without a sex tape . Plans were put into motion via blackberry and twitter, to fool gossip lovers like myself and innocent fans in order to sell a few songs to the crowd. Later on in the week, a ‘’pretend kartel’ pregnancy was used to launch a career. How much lower are you trying to take us? Or are you insulting our intelligence and boldly doing so? One thing for sure, if American musicians come up with a sales gimmick, you best believe its real.  Leading people on is an insult and if it is used to sell music, people will get tired of both.

Allow the music to be the music.

OBEAH AND THE BUSINESS

We were all spermlings before we became fetuses,then babies, then toddlers then ,adolescents then adults, then mature adults then we die. When many musicians started, they had to beg, pretend to like ,sponge and endure many sleepless nights until they got a breakthrough.  So why is it as soon as someone gets to the top, they start fighting the small ones at the bottom? You had your time to shine, allow someone else to come in and shine as well.

Many of you claim you go to church yet you are ‘’protected’’ by the obeah man. People say they walk by you and  their whole body goes numb, I guess that one was stronger than the March Drug store brand. I won’t call you by name but is that supposed to make your music sell?

The uptown singer, that sings well, you have an ex that everyone says you have not gotten over. They say the Obeah man says you are his biggest customer? Why hasn’t your career crossed over?

Young woman with the nice husband and two children, you said the obeah man told you the other person’s obeah is too strong so because you could not get her down. You have been carrying news from pillow to post spreading lies and even a photograph you sent out online.  You don’t even have a career, shame on you.

The man in the business that no one cannot obeah but still that doesn’t stop you from going to the obeah man carrying back the fake stories about people wanting you to hang.  The spirit is a strong thing why cant your obeah man cure yours?

The dread that wears his locks around his ankle for protection, why didn’t you lend it to your siblings to be protected?

The universal all rounder obeah man clown, that confessed that it wasn’t you but called out another entertainer that did the obeah deed. How did you know that he did something if you didn’t try?

I could go on and on but by reading you know yourselves and know they what I have typed are not lies.

You all have dirty , badminded red eyed nasty ways and that is why the business is stagnant, you each sit and watch each other, plotting your brother’s demise, blocking whoever you feel should not shine in the music, forgetting God gave you a chance, and don’t think it was man. It was God who gave you your time to shine. Have you ever wondered why other musicians world wide makes more money than Jamaicans?  They all concentrate on their music, while you concentrate on the music of others. Plotting, cutting, obeah-ing, cursing each other with none to console. But I will leave you this ..Because me the nobody loves the music so much.

But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth. 18: If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub. 19: And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your judges. 20: But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you. 21: When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace: 22: But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils. 23: He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.

JAMAICA’S MUSIC INDUSTRY..WHERE DO YOU STAND?

Street hawker Yvonne Chikotsa last visited a bank in 2008, near the zenith of Zimbabwe’s hyperinflation. She would wake each morning at dawn to beat long lines and withdraw more than one trillion Zimbabwean dollars, which was what a loaf of bread cost at the time.

“I still have mortal fear of banks,” said Ms. Chikotsa, who sells used clothing at a market in Harare’s impoverished Mbare district. She blames the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe for allowing the runaway inflation that destroyed the value of her modest income. Now, she says: “My pillow is my bank.”

Zimbabwe’s economy is growing, in part because the government in 2009 discarded the country’s currency in favor of the U.S. dollar. The move tamed inflation and slowed a rush to the exits for investors. Yet deep-seated distrust of the government’s handling of money matters lingers among ordinary Zimbabweans, depriving banks of the deposits they need to drive a faster economic expansion that might ease some of the country’s tensions.

The uncertainty has turned Zimbabwe into a nation of hoarders. The grubby graying American dollars on Zimbabwe’s streets—including bountiful supplies of $2 bills, last printed by the U.S. Treasury in 2006—attest to a robust cash economy that largely bypasses the country’s banks. Deposits in Zimbabwe’s banks have recovered from $1.25 billion at the beginning of 2010 to some $3.3 billion since “dollarization,” but people hold more than that amount—or about $3.5 billion—outside of banks, according to the Bankers Association of Zimbabwe.

Zimbabwe’s cash-starved banks, and a central bank that has lost control of its currency, mirror challenges in other countries, including Greece, Malawi and Swaziland. But troubles at Zimbabwe’s central bank have reached a different level of dysfunction.

Over the past decade, the reserve bank lent $1.5 billion to President Robert Mugabe’s government for pet projects. The bank now owes $1.1 billion to a cast of regional development and central banks that it says it can’t repay because the government hasn’t reimbursed it.

Gideon Gono, who has led the reserve bank since 2003, is also battling allegations he has embezzled millions in central bank funds for personal use. Mr. Gono hasn’t publicly addressed the allegations, and in an email response to The Wall Street Journal, Mr. Gono declined to comment in detail. He said he would “respond to pressures” about the allegations “at the appropriate time.”

In the meantime, the bank can’t even serve as Zimbabwe’s lender of last resort. The government is in talks with the African Export-Import Bank to create a $100 million program to restart the lender-of-last-resort facility.

Alex Vaviro runs his dirty U.S. dollars through a washing machine in Harare, Zimbabwe, in July 2010, in an effort to keep them fresh.

Short of that, if the central bank can’t step in to guarantee bank lending, liquidity will dry up, which is what has happened.

The string of troubles has left Zimbabwe’s financial system gasping, depriving businesses of capital at a time of sky-high unemployment. Zimbabwe officials estimate 90% of the country’s working-age population is unemployed.

After Zimbabwe abandoned its currency in favor of the greenback, the economy grew at an annual rate of 6% in 2009 and 9% in 2010. But growth dropped back to a rate of 6% last year and will fall to 3.1% this year, the International Monetary Fund predicts.

The crippled banking sector is contributing to the eroding growth rate, said Yvonne Mhango, Renaissance Capital’s economist for sub-Saharan Africa.

“Basically there is no monetary policy. I think they’re out of ideas,” Ms. Mhango said.

The banking troubles have dimmed an already bleak investment picture.

The country has untapped deposits of platinum and rich agricultural land. But few are willing to risk losing their investment to the “indigenization” agenda of President Mugabe, which aims to transfer farms and control of businesses and mines to blacks.

The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe’s ideas for shoring up the financial sector have had a similar effect, economists say. In February, the central bank demanded that foreign banks, including Barclays BARC.LN +1.37% PLC and Standard Chartered STAN.LN 0.00% PLC, keep at least 70% of local deposits and assets in the country. Mr. Gono has promised meetings with banks and unspecified punishment for those that don’t comply.

A spokeswoman for Standard Chartered in Harare, Lillian Muchafara Hapanyengwi, said the bank always tries to comply with local laws. “All regulatory issues are given the highest attention,” Ms. Hapanyengwi wrote in an email. Barclays didn’t respond to requests for comment.

The demands have made banks hesitant to lend in Zimbabwe, hurting small domestic ventures that need capital to expand.

Tofara Kwenda, who earns $1,000 a month as a field officer for a democracy-advocacy group, applied last year for a $2,000 loan from Standard Chartered to open a candle-making business.

He says the bank never ruled on his application, even after a bank official called to scold him for complaining on his Facebook page about the slow process. Eventually, he got a loan from one of the many for-profit microfinance firms that have proliferated in Zimbabwe as traditional banks have pulled back.

“The banks are not grateful,” Mr. Kwenda said. “I am just using my bank account as a conduit to get my salary, which I immediately withdraw and keep at home.”

The distrust of banks is a problem for small domestic lenders that haven’t been able to rebuild deposit bases enough to expand their businesses, economists say. Many of Zimbabwe’s local banks have merged or sold majority stakes after struggling to meet capital requirements. The government is pushing for more consolidation.

Meanwhile, Zimbabweans are trying to get by without traditional loans and bank accounts.

Ms. Chikotsa, the 33-year-old clothing merchant in Harare, said she had never heard of Mr. Gono or Zimbabwe’s reserve bank until her small deposits started losing their value so rapidly.

“We were only taught to count to a thousand when we were in primary school, but that man, Gono, got us to know figures that we never thought existed,” Ms. Chikotsa said.

The government says it wants to compensate depositors for the money they lost. But three years have passed, and Ms. Chikotsa is still waiting.
